Good morning everyone,
I hope you are all well. As a I mentioned to you before that Dementia has a behavioural component which can be very distressing for the carer. My mum who is 92 has a perforated ear drum and can hear in her left hear with help of a hearing aid.
Without her hearing aid it is difficult for hear and it accelerates the Dementia.
The problem that I have got with the "Dementia Gremlin" is that when I put in the Hearing Aid takes it out. It is a big problem it results in the breakdown in communication and Dementia Gremlin wins on two fronts namely acceleration of the dementia and creates a communication barrier.
Has anyone got any strategies for dealing with this situation.
Please can you advise and whether you have any specific techniques for dealing with this situation.
Many thanks for your help.
Kind Regards
Christopher
